Creating a teacher-led whole-class language awareness task using Padlet

 This is a consciousness-raising task to alert students to 3 kinds of nouns in English: Count; Noncount; and nouns which are both Count and Noncount. 

The screen will show a table with 3 columns (with Headings as 'Count', 'Noncount', 'Both Count and Noncount'. Near the bottom of the screen are 12 nouns. The teacher will guide Ss, or invite them to, drag the 12 nouns into the 3 columns. (Note that this is not a test of students' knowledge;  purpose is awareness-raising). 

Padlet has a board type called 'Canvas' which allows cards to be created randomly and dragged around on the board. Padlet also has a board type called 'Columns', but once this board type is chosen, any card created will have to go into one column, and not scattered around near the bottom of the page. 

So, i created a table using PPT, and I saved this table as an image. I then created a new Padlet using the Canvas format, and uploaded the above image to serve as the wallpaper. I then added the 12 cards (one noun on each card). 

Below is what the product looks like:
